There's really no such thing as certainty.
This life is all truly uncertain.
The land of uncertainty, while scary at times, is actually the home of the one of the greatest adventures of all. When we are living in uncertainty, we give ourselves the opportunity to be open to everything that the world has to offer us. We connect. We show up as the greatest version of ourselves. We live and breathe in this moment and fully live.
The future can be incredibly exciting but you really don't have much control over it at all. You can also get completely stuck in living in the land of the future and it can destroy your life just as much as being stuck in the past. There's really nothing worse that disconnecting from your friends, family, and own life as you sacrifice everything for grasping at ambitions.
That was how I lived my life.
I refused to live in the present moment.
Not that it was a bad thing all of the time, but it was out of alignment with the deep underlying need and desire for a real connection with others. I knew that I really needed that connection, so I had to start to make some changes. I suspect the balance of where goals and dreams lie with a person who has great ambitions is they must really appreciate what they have now, be the person that they envision in the future at the current moment, and learn that the future is only going to be a representation of deep purpose of what is going on in their life right now.
My problem was that I looked at the future as a location where it might all turn out and everything would be alright. Wrong. You need to be okay with what is going on today. When you can really live in the moment and let the uncertainty of the future handle itself, happiness creeps in.
Take some time to really connect with what's going on and give yourself the best opportunity to live.
Uncertainty is beautiful.
